Maria Elena Lorenzo started her tamale business over 20 years ago as a cart vendor in the city of Watts, with her husband Jose and 5 daughters. As business grow Elena and her family decided to operate…
I love this place, too bad it's not open all the time on door dash. 😔 So whenever it pops up when I'm looking for something to eat on Saturday mornings I feel like I just won Willy Wonkas golden ticket. Lol! My favorite is the Special Tamal #1, it's s so good! I've had it with either chicken or barbacoa and both are so savory. I also order a few of their other Tamales and Sweet Tamales to eat the next day with some of their Champurrado. The champurrado is so delicious. 😋

the tamales were dry and lacked meat. the ratio of masa to meat was ridiculous. the worse tamales i ever had.

everything was good and my favorite the Menudo but yall made the portion smaller and raise the price so I could only feed one kid now instead of 2 I hope you can go back to your previous portion .

Good portion but the Tamales were sort of raw and they gave me the wrong ones. Probably will not order again unless it's just for the Champurrado

I had the Tamales, and they were pretty good! The green salsa elevates the dish.
